budget engine choice
I'm picking up a new engine and pipe in s couple weeks, give me some input. Its going in a cen matrix buggy and I'll be getting a pipe as well. Price will need to stay around $200. The track I run is short probably 75 foot straight will be the only place to open her up at. I'm looking at:
NovvaRossi n21b limited

Go 3 port sport

Picco 21b 3 port
http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/12591
I want something that is going to tune and hold a tune easily and be reliable. What do you guys think?

I have the Novarossi N21bf Limited and love it. In my opinion, it's the best engine for $150.

All good motors!
Nova 21BF would be my pic...
RB S3 also very good.

NOVA Best budget engine period. Pair it with an 086 and your golden. The dynamite 086 will keep you in your price range of $200.

broke in my nova bf21 today. Ran about 7 tanks total and got it running pretty good so far. gonna run a few more tanks tomorrow and probably race it the first time tomorrow night. I say race but Im gonna take it easy for the first night. Seems to be a pretty strong engine for the money.

Take a look at the Orion Alpha 3 port...the ABI version of the motor WON at Silver State and Nitro Challenege.

If your a fan of the Novarossi BF, then the JP Racing B3 is a nice choice also.

Get the GO 3 port race model with 086, or the 7 port race model with 053. The 3 port for small to med tracks the 7 for med to large tracks. Or if you just want an all out monster with stump pulling bottum end the 5 port race but I suggest that for truggy or if you have an old school 9 pound buggy LOL.

I decided to try the Nova 21 limited on my buggy this year. I abslutely love this motor. I don't think it can be beat in quality or performance for the price.

N21b limited carb?
Is the N21B limited carb a plastic body to prevent vapor lock or is it made out of Aluminum?
